A crunchy, naturally sweetened granola packed with nuts, seeds, and maple syrup — completely vegan and gluten-free. Perfect for a healthy breakfast or snack, this granola combines gluten-free oats with wholesome almonds, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds, lightly sweetened with maple syrup and flavored with cinnamon and vanilla.

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 6 cups

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 3 cups certified gluten-free rolled oats
  • ½ cup chopped almonds
  • ¼ cup pumpkin seeds
  • ¼ cup sunflower seeds
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • Pinch of sea salt

Wet Ingredients

  • ⅓ cup melted coconut oil
  • ⅓ cup maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) to ensure it reaches the right temperature by the time you’re ready to bake the granola.
  2. Combine dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the gluten-free rolled oats, chopped almonds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, cinnamon, and a pinch of sea salt. Stir them together to evenly distribute all the dry components.
  3. Add wet ingredients: Pour the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir well until all the oats and nuts are thoroughly coated with the mixture.
  4. Spread granola on sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the granola mixture in an even layer. This helps it bake evenly and prevents sticking.
  5. Bake the granola: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes. About halfway through the baking time (around 15 minutes), remove the pan and stir the granola to ensure even toasting and prevent burning.
  6. Cool completely: After baking until golden and fragrant, remove the pan from the oven. Allow the granola to cool completely on the baking sheet; it will crisp up as it cools.

Notes

  • Add dried fruit such as raisins or cranberries after baking to prevent them from burning in the oven.
  • Store the granola in an airtight jar or container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks to maintain freshness.
